It's only been 8 months....since I've been back from Australia and a crazy 8 months at that!! I've been from coast to coast and lots of lake time and lots of weekend trips to Arizona and met a lot of new awesome people and got to go to DLand ...twice. I've despised the snow an cold for my last winter hopefully!! Lol.
But now I get to start another adventure.... IRELAND!!
To tell you the truth ...I have no clue what I'm getting myself into lol. It's all happened soo fast and even though I am writing this on the plane to Dublin..I still can't believe I'm moving there. :)
It all started when my job in Spokane wasn't turning out to be what I expected or wanted and so I thought Ireland or the Uk would be a fun place to go. (I like going palaces I know the language) So I resumed my nanny profile online, within a few days I got quite a bit of interest but nothing looked like something I wanted to get my self into. So a few weeks passed by and I didn't think much of it and then out of nowhere I get a message on Fb from Jen.
"We would really love for you to au pair with us. You seem to have lots of experience and are exactly the help we need. We have 3 small children. Abbie is just turned 2 and loves trips to the park, walks, swimming and playing. The boys..twins Max and Alex are presently 6 months old. They are very cute and love fun too. I can show you around Ireland and we can take trips with the kids if you like. Please let me know what you think."
When I read I was like woah! This could actually happen. So then we emailed back a forth a few more times and everything sounded good. I was planning on going over in spring so I still had awhile....but then certain things about my job in Spokane were happening that I was not ok with and Jen was having problems with her current nanny so we both talked about it and decided that it would be best for BOTH of us if I came over asap.
Next thing you know....it's a month away. I had to give notice at my job but still work that for the last month. Move all my stuff back home to my parents and try and see all my friends. Holy moly I had a lot of stuff todo in a short period of time. But in the long run everything worked out perfect!!
Last week all my awesome friends threw a lil going away party for me...they are so sweet!!!
Then I spent some time with my parents while I was trying to pack....I hate packing!! But I got it done and then came to Seattle and got to have one last supper with Bry,Lyndsy, and my mommy!! It was a fun send off!!
So now I am in the midst of my 12 hour journey to Ireland, where I am ready to start a whole new adventure, meet new people, explore new places, and I couldn't be more excited!!! :)
